This Is The Lightsaber Silverware You're Looking For
The lightsaber is unquestionably one of the most enduring elements of George Lucas's Star Wars saga. The laser sword has captured the imagination of generations of film geeks, and we've seen crafty fans come up with a ton of variations on the sci-fi weapon to fit various needs and uses, including keys, toothbrushes, BBQ tongs, flashlights, sunglasses, pens, ice pops, lamps, and more.
Now ThinkGeek is here with a different iteration of the lightsaber: as silverware. With the holidays coming up, this seems like a nice gift opportunity.
Make every meal a little bit more more civilized with this set of 3 utensils featuring lightsaber handles. The fork features Luke's lightsaber hilt, the spoon features Yoda's, and the knife features Vader's. We were pondering whether the choice of implements for the characters indicated anything, like the knife is there to tear things apart, but we couldn't really make any connections. Except that Yoda's really old. He probably likes pudding. Pistachio.
Note: These are the hilts only. They do not light up. They are not "actual" lightsabers. This is for the best. It'd be hard to use a fork that cut things every time you went to skewer it. And imagine trying to eat ice cream with a lightsaber spoon...
